What's in the Box

(1) Heater Tube

Product Description

This is the factory heater tube line which runs from the front of the intake manifold back to the rubber heater hoses on the heater core. These lines can crack and break over time, so replace yours with this OE Ford quality part from Latemodel Restoration Supply.

Used this as one of the required parts to do a PI intake swap on my '96 Mustang GT. The retaining bracket and/or the front end of the tube that connects to the water pump were slightly bent from shipping, so it took a lot of effort to carefully tweak it into position so that it would properly seat against the water pump nipple. Once in place, however, there were no leaks, and it's VERY nice that this design only uses one bolt rather than the super-awkward two bolts used on the original pipe on the '96-'98 models.

Best Answer:Remove the intake manifold for full access and partially drain the cooling system, Remove the heater hose at the rear and the retaining bolt and simply slide it off of the nipple on the back of the water pump. New one installs in the reverse. Be sure to thoroughly burp the cooling system to get rid of air pockets. Answered by Jonathan M.from Hewitt | February 3, 2015 | Comment00

Testimonial: Late model helped build two of my mustangs

I have had a bunch of different mustangs in the past and always was hard to get parts till a friend told me about Late model restoration when I had my 1993 cobra and I found everything I needed to finish that car and am now working on my 1986 gt and am finding everything I need . I had a transmission mount delivered to me without the mounting bolts and they more than made up the difference for the missing bolts ! Out of all the parts I have ordered one mistake ever was very well taken care of . I definitely will plan on finishing my 86 gt with the help of Late model restoration ! Thanks !
